What Our Artists Say

“Being an artist at Zenaviv has changed my life in ways I never thought possible. It has given me amazing opportunities and an income that I never would have had before. Through their support and belief in my talent, I’ve found a place where my art is valued and where I can pursue my creative endeavors.”
— Jen Parr
“I describe my work as “Artism” as it expresses my perception of the world: through the prism of autism.”
— Lee Jaworek
“Everyone expresses themselves in different ways. Michael will tell you that art is the way he best expresses himself. When confusing social protocol makes it difficult to communicate your thoughts and ideas, a colored pencil can tell a story through pictures that is quite often more telling. Having the opportunity to use his art to make someone happy, or contribute in some way, is a long-standing dream. We are all so grateful to Zenaviv for giving him the opportunity to work towards that dream.”
— Michael Sardoni
